Pennsylvania Granite to build new saw shop in Warwick

WARWICK — Representatives from Pennsylvania Granite have been working with township officials to advance plans to construct a new saw shop as a replacement for one that burned down.

Located at 410 Trythall Road, the original building where the company cuts its granite was destroyed in a fire about a year ago. The new building will be located near the southeast corner of the quarry. Pennsylvania Granite sells wholesale granite to businesses in southeastern Pennsylvania.

The township planning commission granted requests for waivers for curbing, driveways, sidewalks, parking lots, loading areas and landscaping. Kevin Spaulding, a representative for the company, said they are working with Warwick Woods Campground to solve issues of joint concern.

A 5-foot berm will be completed around the circumference of the quarry before use and occupancy is granted.
